Hayn Bow Shackles

Hayn Bow Shackles are Type 316 stainless steel shackles with a rounded bow body that distributes load across a wider bearing surface than a D shackle, available in three pin configurations across nine sizes with minimum breaking loads from 1,320 lbs through 22,000 lbs.

Strong Where It Matters

Hayn Bow Shackles

The wider bow geometry makes these the right choice where the fitting being connected — a block strap, eye, or loop — needs more lateral bearing surface than a D shackle jaw provides, or where multi-directional loading is a factor. Standard screw pin covers everyday applications; socket head pin offers a cleaner profile where tool access is limited; and shake proof retained pin adds positive locking for high-vibration or offshore conditions where an unsecured pin is not an option. Available in pin sizes from 5/32" through 3/4" across the three configurations, with the full bow and socket pin ranges running from 5/32" through 5/8" body diameter and shake proof available from 3/16" through 5/8".

Engineered In America Every Hayn fitting is designed and manufactured at our facility in Rocky Hill, Connecticut — the same American workmanship that has set the standard for stainless steel rigging hardware since 1950.
Cold-Worked Production Hayn fittings are cold-worked, not cast. That distinction matters: the cold-working process refines grain structure, increases fatigue resistance, and produces a fundamentally stronger component — one built to perform when the load comes on it.
Precision Manufacturing Our Rocky Hill production floor runs CNC vertical mills, CNC lathes, large-capacity mill-turn centers, and waterjet cutting systems — all configured to produce hardware that meets exact specifications, every time.
75+ Years of Excellence Hayn has been engineering and manufacturing marine and architectural rigging hardware since 1950. That track record isn't just history, it's the design knowledge, failure data, and continuous improvement that goes into every product we make. 
  • Type 316 stainless steel construction for superior saltwater corrosion resistance
  • Manufactured in Rocky Hill, Connecticut to Hayn's proprietary tolerances
  • Precision-machined using advanced CNC manufacturing equipment



  • Engineered for seamless integration in marine and architectural rigging systems

  • Short lead times on both standard and custom components

  • Backed by 75 years of marine and architectural hardware expertise
